# Daily biorhythm chart & energy tracker Check if it’s really your rhythm

Biotide draws your three biorhythm cycles from your birth date, then tests them on you. A thirty-second check-in each evening shows which curves match how you actually feel, and only the ones that fit shape your readings and your best days. For iPhone and iPad.

## Most biorhythm apps tell you. Biotide asks you.

The three curves are the theory’s guess. Your evening check-ins are the test: energy, mood, focus and sleep, each from 1 to 5. After 14 check-ins Biotide shows how often each curve matched how you felt. A curve that fits keeps its say; one that doesn’t counts for less in your readings and plans, and can drop out entirely. With Plus, your sleep and heart signals from Apple Health join the test.

## What is in the app

The classic biorhythm calculator and chart, checked against you every evening.

Is it really your rhythm?
:   After 14 check-ins Biotide shows how often each curve matched how you felt. A curve that doesn’t fit you counts for less in your readings and plans, and can drop out entirely.

Daily biorhythm chart
:   Physical, emotional and intellectual values for any day, worked out from your birth date. Drag the chart back or forward in time, from a week to three months at a glance.

Your day in words
:   A short reading of what to lean into and what to go easy on, with transition days, the classic “critical days”, marked before they arrive.

Thirty-second check-in
:   Rate your energy, mood, focus and last night’s sleep from 1 to 5 each evening. A gentle reminder helps, and skips the days you have already logged.

Prime days
:   Pick what is coming, from an exam or a job interview to a date, a race or an important conversation, and get the best days in the next 30, 60 or 90 days. Already have a date? See how it looks and whether a nearby day is better.

Biorhythm compatibility
:   Add people by birthday or bring them in from Contacts. See how your cycles line up as a match percentage, day by day, with the next good day to talk.

Apple Health, with Plus
:   Sleep, heart rate variability, resting heart rate and breathing rate, compared with your own usual, never with norms. Read only, and it never leaves your device.

Widgets
:   Today’s three values on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen. The small widget is free.

Privacy
:   No account, no servers, no ads and no analytics in the app. Your data stays on your device, or in your own iCloud if you turn on sync.

Languages
:   English and Ukrainian.

## How it works

From your birth date to your best days, in three steps.

Sample data, as on the screens: the cycles for a birth date of 12 March 1988, two weeks of check-ins and the best days for an exam. The curves’ guess.

1. ### Check in

   Your birth date draws the three curves. Each evening, rate your energy, mood, focus and sleep in about thirty seconds, and every check-in lands on the chart.
2. ### See what fits

   After 14 check-ins Biotide shows how often each curve matched how you felt. Here the emotional curve matched only 57% of the time, so it counts for less.
3. ### Plan ahead

   Pick an exam, an interview or an important conversation, and Biotide ranks the days ahead with the curves that fit you: here, the 15th, 17th and 19th.

## Stated plainly

Biorhythm theory, popular since the 1970s, says three cycles start on the day you were born: physical over 23 days, emotional over 28 and intellectual over 33. When researchers compared the curves with accidents, sports results, exam scores and moods, they did no better than chance, and a 1998 review of 134 studies concluded that the theory is not supported (Hines, Psychological Reports, 1998).

So Biotide treats the curves as a starting guess you can test, never as a prediction. Your own check-ins decide how much each curve counts. Apple Health signals are compared with your own usual, never with norms, and nothing is diagnosed. Biotide is for reflection and planning, not medical advice: if you feel unwell, talk to a doctor.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a biorhythm?

A biorhythm is one of three cycles that, according to a theory popular since the 1970s, start on the day you were born: physical over 23 days, emotional over 28 days and intellectual over 33 days. Biotide works out all three from your birth date and draws them as a daily biorhythm chart.

### How is Biotide different from other biorhythm apps?

Most biorhythm apps draw the curves and tell you how your day will go. Biotide also asks you, with a thirty-second evening check-in of energy, mood, focus and sleep. After 14 check-ins it shows how often each curve matched how you felt, and a curve that doesn’t fit you counts for less in your readings and plans, or drops out entirely.

### What are critical days in a biorhythm?

Critical days are the days a cycle crosses zero, on its way from the high half to the low half or back. Biotide calls them transition days and marks them before they arrive; the theory treats them as sensitive days for that cycle.

### How does biorhythm compatibility work?

Biotide compares your three cycles with another person's, worked out from both birthdays, and shows how closely they line up as a match percentage. It also shows, day by day, which days look good for the two of you, such as the next good day for an important conversation.

### What does Biotide cost?

Biotide is free to download, with no ads. The chart, daily readings, check-ins, people and compatibility, Prime days and the small widget are free; Biotide Plus, an optional weekly or yearly subscription or one-time purchase, adds Apple Health signals, the full check-in history, Prime days tuned to you and every widget size.

### Is my data private?

Yes. Biotide has no account, no servers and no analytics in the app: your birth date, check-ins and people stay on your device, or in your own iCloud if you turn on sync. Apple Health data is only read, never written, and never leaves the device. The [privacy policy](https://biotide.app/privacy.html.md) has the details.
